What is an ERN?

An ERN or ERA, also called an Electronic Remittance Notice/Advice, is a file sent by payers which replicates the data from the paper EOMB. The primary purpose for Providers to download these ERN files is to “Auto-Post” cash (as opposed to manually entering checks).

However, the ERN can and should be used for MUCH more in the reimbursement process. For instance, with RemitDATA’s Reimbursement PRO™, the ERN can be used to recreate patient-specific EOBs on demand. In addition, Review Forms and Short-Pay Letters can be auto-generated based on a criteria filter that scans the ERN for specific issues.

ERNs can also be aggregated and used to create management reports to highlight your denial experience and locate any troublesome areas. Compare your quarterly ERN data with the industry standards to determine the effectiveness of your staff. Most importantly, you can download these ERNs 3-5 days BEFORE the paper EOMBs arrive and begin using Reimbursement PRO™ IMMEDIATELY! More cash in less time.
